As rents and new home prices come down across B.C. we are working on reducing costs so we can continue to see new housing supply.

Last week we announced deferral of Development Cost Charges for new homes.

This week B.C. Hydro stepping up to lower costs and expedite new connections.πŸ™ŒπŸΎ

Big move from the Province:
βœ”οΈ 25% of fees at building permit
βœ”οΈ 75% deferred until occupancy or 4 yrs
βœ”οΈ Surety bonds accepted

This is a smart step that reflects what industry has been asking for.

@udibc
is at the table and will keep pushing for practical solutions.
